Gourley, on loan from Fort Lauderdale United FC through June 2025, hit the ground running in her Power FC debut, clinching the equalizer to secure DC Power Football Club's first point of the schedule.

Academy contract additions include midfielders Valentina Perrotta and Leia Galliani, both players looking to capitalize on the opportunity to step up at the professional level this season.

Ownership Additions

Several prominent leaders in the sports business community will be joining Power FC's elite ownership team throughout the Spring slate, each deeply invested in establishing a championship-caliber club and fostering a winning culture

Amongst a lengthy list of ownership additions is the former D.C. United homegrown defender and proud Clarksville, Maryland native, Donovan Pines. Passionate about the rise in women's professional sports, Pines is thrilled to play a role in the club's inaugural season and make a positive difference in his community.

"It's amazing to see women's game continuing to grow both domestically and abroad," Donovan Pines said. "I was excited when I heard about the USL Super League coming to Washington, D.C., and I knew that I wanted to be a part of the process as someone who calls the DMV home. I'm so happy to join the ownership group and provide my support in creating new opportunities and pathways for aspiring female athletes in the country

Theme Nights and Giveaways

Packed with theme nights and surprise giveaways, Power FC kicks off its season with a limited-edition DC Power Football Club t-shirt giveaway to the first 500 fans in attendance on Sunday afternoon.

Power FC returns to Audi Field for the Spring season on Sunday with a championship hunger, eager to connect with the community and bring a title home to the district.

"Audi Field is our home," Head Coach Phil Nana said. "We want to play with a lot of pride and give something to the fans this season."
